Begging American Christians to read their bible and eventually get to the part where Jesus commanded folks to pray in secret rather than to make a big boast about their faith.

Hoping Christians get the right message from Jesus's presumed teachings is always a sucker's bet. That's why for most of the 1600 years in recent history the church just cuts to the chase by torturing and killing people who stand in their way. Y'know, like Jesus would have if he hadn't been so woke.

Looks to me like empty boxes taped together.

But who knows, tide-goes-in tide-goes-out you can't explain that. So maybe it's a miracle or whatever.

How dare you question the miracles of our Lord and Savior!

Our Doctor, who art in cans, Pepper be thy name Thy discount come, Thy stock value increase, In sales as it helps shareholders. Give us this day our sugar rush, And forgive us our loud belches As we forgive those who refuse to drink Thee. Lead us not into moderation But deliver us to diabetes. For thine is the fandom, The branding and the artificial flavors, Forever and ever, brrraaaapp.

I'm assuming empty boxes glued to each other. Either that or Jeebus magic.

The made a pact with Satan. The powers of the underworld keep them erect.

I bet Reverend Pepper wouldn't be as good

I'd go up and hit em with "Jesus was a Jew, you know. Where's the Dr. Star of David Pepper display?"

This feels like something out of Superstore: Glen puts this up and Dana destroys it.

If I wanted to watch a bunch of low life idiots work menial jobs I'd rather just sit inside walmart with a beach chair and some alcohol.

Some people are so fucking stupid. This really bummed me out.

Recommending a book, once again: The Passover Plot. History nerds will enjoy it. Published in 1965; I gain nothing from sales.

God would not drink that crap and he left a piss stain (top right) on the ceiling tile.

I remember seeing a picture of a supermarket display like this with a little girl praying on her knees in front.

Didn't the Walmart guy on reddit say most of these were designed and constructed by the soda company reps?

Nah, this is definitely a store manager mandated thing. I recognize the shittiness of those signs.

The real special displays you see... Yes. They aren't even actual 12 packs. Just displays that you assemble that look like it. Like the other guy said though there is zero chance in hell the company actually did this.

Absolutely. Companies really don't like taking a stance on anything.

Doing so alienate customers, and therefore potentially reduces profits.

This can't be construed in any way other than "Christianity", which alienates every other religion and nonreligious folk alike.

Unless you're in the German state of Bavaria, where putting up crucifixes everywhere apparently has nothing to do with Christianity but rather the state's "identity"

I bet it's there for.a.while because the manager feels conflicted about taking it down and breaking it apart.
